Will AJ be rocked, dropped or stopped vs Usyk.

[Nash out]

This is not a fight I would bet on, but I favour AJ. Joshua struggled with Ruiz's up-close, fast, constant combinations, Usyk fights in a more calculated way and is not as fast as Ruiz. I think Joshua needs to start fast, and even go for the kill inside the first six rounds, and I think Usyk will have the better of the last six rounds if it does go 12. Very good fight. Nash out.

I disagree. The fight wouldn't be as worth as much without all four belts on the line. A 3-belt unification with the Fury-Wilder winner is big, just not as big as undisputed. I don't think AJ really has much of a choice.

Disagree, only boxing hardcores care about undisputed.

Fury vs Joshua is the biggest fight in boxing belts or no belts.

The Saudis weren't willing to pay a 150M site fee, because AJ was fighting Fury, they were doing so because it was for all the belts.

Look... I get it. I love to chase women all day. We have a great laugh because they know, especially with my hobbled leg healing, there is no proof I will ever catch them. I am a coveted "catch and kiss" ringer!

Show me the proof that Lurch (Usyk) ever was effective and dominant against a heavyweight. Even Usyk knows better and has retooled himself. AJ is not a great heavyweight but he is a talented heavyweight who can punch with both hands. Usyk tries to move backwards like he did against Chisora AJ will splatter him.

[Zelda]

None of the above.

Usyk hasn't done that to lower-level HWs, what makes you think he can do that to a HW champion? Who has Usyk hurt in the HW? what makes you even think this will be a competitive fight or that Usyk won't be destroyed within 4-5 rounds?

Can definitely see Joshua getting rocked at some point, Usyk is quicker and far more mobile - has the ability to get in and out and I have little doubt he'll land a coupla that Joshua don't see coming. But.... I ain't convinced he's got enough to stop Joshua or even seriously hurt him, and in fact once Joshua lands a few times I see Usyk quite likely bouncing along the ropes for the remainder, just launching the occasional sally from time to time, but not enough to sway the judges. Time will tell though.

AJ is a safety first fighter now. You saw that against Pulev where he could've got close and beat him up, but Ruiz 1 was still in his head. I see it going the distance and Joshua winning a controversial decision.

I can see Usyk rocking him late on , he seems to do better in the 2nd half of his fights

I agree he needs to hit Usyk with something big very early, it'll either stop Usyk or at least make him hesitent and that'll be the key.

Absolutely not. Usyk's style lacks any real power. I think it will be a great fight while it last.
